"The made-up disease of “sex addiction” is perfect for a society in which we’re not supposed to talk about sex, but yearn to. It’s perfect for a profession—psychology—that requires virtually no training in sexual behavior, desire, pleasure, or communication, but experiences people’s sexual problems every day. Labelling people as “sex addicts” is so much easier than actually talking with them about their emotional pain and their complex experience of their own sexuality.""And we will have demonized one more person who uses their sexuality to express their internal pain and terror, hurting others in the process. To protect those we love, the answer isn’t to quarantine the Weinsteins of the world. Instead, we should discuss and understand sexuality enough so that people are less likely to use it to hurt others."

All addictions, serve an emotional purpose. Addictions are not just substance abuses (drugs, alcohol), but also behaviors. In humans, the common denominator behind any compulsive behavior is the desire for a, “quick fix or mood changer,” for how we feel, the need to feel better.

The purpose of any addiction is to regain control over intolerably helpless-trapped-powerless feelings, an emotional state. This helplessness is always rooted in something deeply important to the individual.

We always have a binary choice. We can regain control of helpless feelings with displaced substitute behaviors (quick fixes or mood changers of drugs or other behaviors), or direct healthy behaviors that empower us.What humans really seek is a sense of control. What we really seek is not a drink, a drug, porn or a bet, but a sense of empowerment, in the face of feeling helpless.

Christ Driven Behavior (CDB), is a Direct empowering behavior that honors God, a direct way to regain control over helpless, trapped, powerless feelings! When we delegate control to God, He empowers us with a seminal mentor that imparts motivation, conviction, purpose and the fruits of the Holy Spirit called values. Self-control is one of those fruits or values! When we execute self-control, we act with direct healthy behavior and not with displaced-indirect behaviors. When we learn to act with assertive healthy Christ Driven Behavior there is no addiction!

Change your thinking and change your life. Don’t conform, transform!

Spread the empirical evidence of direct- empowering Christ Driven Behavior (CDB), while discouraging the dissemination of myth, hysteria and hype.

There is no reason why anyone with any hurt, habit, or hang up cannot be helped. The Person-God partnership simply needs to be more powerful than any hurt, habit or hangup.

Behind everything you do is a THOUGHT.

Every BEHAVIOR is motivated by a BELIEF.

Every ACTION is prompted by an ATTITUDE.

With respect to behavior, life is about, emotions, beliefs, thinking and control.

"A fool vents all his feelings, But a wise man holds them back."Proverbs 29:11 (Displaced Behaviors)

"Do not be conformed by this world but instead by the renewing of your mind." Romans 12:2 (Direct Behavior)

When you think and empower yourself and surrender control to God, when you Intelligently Delegate Control to God (2 Corinthians 12:9-10),

God returns that control to you with a, “Helper," the Holy Spirit, (John 14:16) a form of Reciprocal Innervation.

You regain control: "the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, long suffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control.

No longer are you subject to corrupted displaced thinking but instead are transformed by the renewing of your mind (Romans 12:2).

This is where science and scripture intertwine, where Christ Driven Behavior brings, values, control, cause, character and purpose driven behavior, the fruits of the spirit Galatians 5:22-23 .

“If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.” 2 Corinthians 5:17.
